Which fucking restaurant inspired that? Harvester?

From Axios:
The U.S. is in the middle of a great gun-buying boom, the N.Y. Timesâ Glenn Thrush reports (subscription):
- The annual number of firearms manufactured has nearly tripled since 2000 â and spiked in the past three years, according to an ATF report that The Times calls âthe first comprehensive federal tally of gun commerce in two decades.â
- "Starting in 2009, Glock-type semiautomatic handguns, purchased for personal protection, began to outsell rifles, which have been typically used in hunting."
Why it matters: The report paints âa vivid statistical portrait of a nation arming itself to the teeth. Buyers capitalized on the loosening of gun restrictions by the Supreme Court, Congress and Republican-controlled state legislatures,â The Times writes.
Wonder if⌠oh⌠yeahâŚ

Wasnât Death by cop the most popular form of suicide in the US?
When the time comes, this cvnt should be in the dock alongside Putin at the Hague. Blair too.
Donât think anyone is even looking at taking those two ex leaders to Court.
Quite right!
Why would we in the West want to address ourselves to some of the worst war-crimes in modern history? Far better to leave it as a huge, festering open-sore contributing to the permanent instability of the Middle East, and justifying the âreasoningâ of insane dictators Worldwide in starving their own populations to pay for a nuclear arsenal that theyâd otherwise never feel the need forâŚ
The point I was making its that Russia, China, Iran and a host of other countries donât seem to want to either. Let alone individuals in countries affected. It could be they know they will lose or perhaps that the system for holding war criminals to account is broken.
I know mate, I was using rhetoric to agree with you - in a pompous, annoying manner
Other than the gun control, the rest of that applies to the UK (just with smaller numbers)
Healthcare is still significantly better than the US model, there was at least some Covid relief, and student debt in the USA is a way scarier proposition than the UK, both in terms of how much gets initially borrowed, and then the insane interest on repayments.
